This viceroy butterfly held still long enough for me to get a close up. He is a beauty! My butterfly bush (Buddleia) lives up to it's promise of attracting butterflies. I am letting my dill and parsley plants stay in the ground even though they are past their prime in hopes that a caterpillar will attach itself to a stem. Had one last year...a swallowtail caterpillar. Yesterday I saw goldfinches and a house finch in my back yard. It's amazing what my little garden in suburbia attracts. I do give some credit to my birdbath always being full and fresh.
